Disappointing selection - Edit
Really limited vegan options, just hummus and veg sandwiches etc, which is annoying considering they’re called olive and bean. usually have a vegan soup of the day which is nice.

Disappointing - Edit
Got the sausage and mushroom ciabatta with sliced avocado on the side. I expected a lot more inside but it was literally just the bread with 2 sausages and 2 mushrooms.
Read moreMaybe should’ve expected less but it was very bland and dry.
I kind of panic-bought it as there weren’t many vegan options at all. Probably wouldn’t go back, the whole thing cost £8.95 and it was definitely not worth that.

Festive Treats - Edit
I visited just before Christmas and ordered a Americano that was excellent and a honeycomb tiffin and chocolate biscoff tiffin to takeaway. Well it was nearly Xmas after all! Although a little pricey, the two tiffins were deliciously moreish. Staff were also very welcoming and there was a nice atmosphere inside. I would definitely return again.

Poor vegan options - Edit
Apart from the drinks, olive and bean didnt really have much for me to eat… I came at a lunch time and the menu had barely any vegan options, everything seemed to have meat in it. When i asked what is there that is vegan exactly no one could answer me… ended up asking for a bagel with avocado and chilli jam (each was £2 to add) and the bagel wasn’t even toasted😡maybe the breakfast menu is better?
Read morePros: Oatly can be used as substitute for drinks, Vegan flapjack available at the downstairs counter
Cons: Vegan lunch options poor, Expensive

Disappointed to hear Olive and Bean still haven't added any vegan options to their lunch menu. The vegan tray bakes I've tried are amazing but wouldn't tend to choose there for lunch.
